DEAR ED,
ACIU! RECEIVED COPY OF SPORT OF FITNESS AND BODYBUILDING MAGAZINE, ISSUE N0. 25 LAST FEB. 23 YET. SAW LOVELY PHOTO OF EDITA SENDRIENE. HOPE TO SEE BOTH OF YOU SOON.
BY THE WAY, WE ARE INVITING YOUR GROUP TO PARTICIPATE IN NABBA ASIA PACIFIC 2007 CHAMPIONSHIPS, THE FIRST-EVER CHAMPIONSHIPS TO BE HOSTED BY OUR COUNTRY IN WORLD-RENOWNED BORACAY ISLAND ON 27-30 APRI, 2007.
IF INTERESTED, I'LL SEND YOU FULL DETAILS.
WARMEST REGARDS,
JUN TANYAG, P.E.E.
President
Samahan ng mga Barbelista sa Pilipinas
(NABBA Pilipinas)
Our answer was:
Dear Juanito,
Thank you very much for Your warm words.
I can come to Your contest just on my own only.
Unfortunately most of our best Athletes from East Europe can not participate at contests of not official organizations like NABBA is.
NABBA is not registered and not recognized Internationally. Registration as "a public club" has only NABBA UK, but we can not be members of a public club of UK...
Be not angry, just think about it.
Most East Europe Teams are supported and financed by the Governments: preparation, travels etc.
How we can prove them that the money is spent legally when the contest (let us say "World Championship) is organized by an International Organization which is not official???
Your friend,
ED
That's true!
